Collection Development Statement

In accord with the mission of the University, the Pollak Library will select, acquire, make accessible, and preserve materials that support the University's academic programs. Materials that meet the needs of our students and the curriculum are given priority. The Library will strive to keep resources current and to develop collections that reflect the intellectual freedom and cultural diversity of our society. Materials will be acquired in a variety of formats with an emphasis on enabling remote access when possible. By balancing programmatic needs within the fiscal realities of the University budget, the Library hopes to serve as a resource for the CSU community and our region.
